Continued nightmares of a technical reluctant - a grapple with Apple

I’m going to expand on a previous blog about my fear of the Twitterati by talking a bit more about my position on Apple.

Every time we welcome a new revision of the iSomething into the world, we bid farewell to the rationality of so many loved ones who have, yet again, morphed into senseless maniacs at the prospect of a new toy from Apple. Do people realise that the amount of money they are spending on a singular product could get them an all-inclusive holiday in the sun? Are they aware that ‘all-inclusive’ means booze is included? 

Something’s not right. The grip Apple has over the world is starting to make me feel a little uncomfortable.

Don't feed the birds - my Twitter nightmares

Inside my head, I was standing in an 80's lunch hall, tray in hand, looking over a sea of strangers who were all chatting and laughing together. Even some of the kids I'd seen before were somehow different now, surrounded by others who seemed to know them so well, hanging off their every word. There weren't any seats free...I didn't understand how to join in. Defeated, I turned and left, hanging my head and clenching my fists, vowing that this would be the last time I ate alone, hidden from the world in a toilet cubicle.
